President of the UN General Assembly Annalena Baerbock addressed leaders at the Second World Summit for Social Development, highlighting the crisis of hunger as a result of inequality, conflict, and policy choices. She emphasized that the issue is not lack of food but failures in access, affordability, and social protection, exacerbated by climate change. Baerbock called for limiting warming to 1.5°C and investing in adaptation and resilience to prevent millions from falling deeper into poverty. The Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, launched under Brazil's G20 Presidency, aims to accelerate practical cooperation in addressing hunger and poverty through initiatives such as scaling up social protection and strengthening climate-resilient agriculture.
